REVIEWS

"Drawing from the dark recesses of NWOBHMâs past are Prestonâs Wytch Hazel. Mounting a small but admirable presence in England and armed with an arsenal of steel, Wytch Hazel are now ready to take on the rest of the trad metal elite with their first demo...

Surrender
Wytch Hazel open with a medieval and mighty take on traditional metal, with the thundering âSurrender.â The band clearly have an ear for classic melodies and show that heaviness is not the only key to a metal classic.

Wytch Hazel
With one foot clearly in the classic rock camp, Wytch Hazel have made a triumphantly catchy offering for their self-titled track. A killer chorus helps round off a song that looks back to the early days of bands such as Judas Priest and Thin Lizzy, whilst retaining its own formidable qualities" - Alex Varley, Blog and Thunder

"This Preston quartet are just of a select number of bands who keep the New Wave of British Heavy Metal alive, scintillating riffs embedded on a rock 'n' roll drum pattern, this is a sign that the classic sounds of the drums and guitars are still there. As for Wytch Hazel this is a decent release and is a promising sign their debut release whether it will be an EP or album will be one to look exceedingly forward to" - Rhys Stevenson, Global Metal Network
